new ink - new digs

wrist ink

OK folks - here are the pictures. First off, this is my new tattoo. It's on the underside of my left wrist. And this picture actually looks kind of funky because one of my bones is jutting out which in turn makes the tattoo look weird. It doesn't really look like that in person. It's actually much more normal looking. (It is Hebrew for "Yahweh" which is what God calls Himself in the Old Testament when He's talking with Moses out of the burning bush. Anyway - the reason I wanted this, right where it is, is because I will see it every single time I look at my watch. And it will be a constant reminder of Who I belong to....God...Yahweh. And actually, here's a bit of knowledge for you...everytime you see "the LORD" written in the Bible as opposed to "the Lord" they actually mean "Yahweh" with the all caps version.)

Anyway - also included in this entry are pictures of my new place with my new roommate, Carolyn. We've only been there for a little less than 3 weeks...so, I think it looks pretty good for just under 3 weeks! As for the ridiculously white walls - we've picked out colors to paint and they'll look great - we just haven't painted yet. You can even see paint samples hanging on the wall in the pic of my room.

So there you go...have at it! It's a great place! And it's so exciting to have a roommate again. Though I will say that the thing that sucks about it is that Carolyn and I will still go days without seeing each other just because we're both so busy. Crazy.

peace all,
